Do you want to learn drills that help extend and widen your dog's outrun? How about trial skills including take pens and freestanding obstacles? Do you want an introduction to driving?

If you answered "yes" then you need All Breed Herding the Next Steps!

The Next Steps picks up where the Introduction to All Breed Herding movie finishes.

The movie then demonstrates drills to: extend and widen the outrun, trial skills including take pens and freestanding obstacles, and introduce driving.

"there is so much information in this video you will have to go through it a few times to take it all in. It is like having a two month clinic in your own home. There are so many tricks and tips, many examples of drills with so many breeds that you are bound to learn something or find something on it that will help make you a better trainer." - Nancy Ireland

In this dog training DVD we use both trained and untrained dogs. By including both you will see the common mistakes new handlers make, solutions for these mistakes and the correct way to train.
